The April breeding value estimation 2025 was a 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐮𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬. 🧐
In Germany the Multi Step breeding value estimation system was changed to the Single Step system, which shook up the German top list quite a bit and in the USA the five-year base adjustment took place (-404 NM$; -752 Mlbs; -0.6 PTAT).
Despite these major changes, 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐬, 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐖𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐦 with his first daughter-proven breeding value. 🤩
William's results at shows and auctions already hinted at his potential, and now he has completely fulfilled the expectations placed in him. He is 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐲 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝟏𝟑𝟓 𝐑𝐙𝐄 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐛𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐌𝐤𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐧 𝐑𝐙𝐌 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟑𝟎. As already described in the last months, William convinces with a unique combination of willingness to produce and type and breeds a perfect free stall cow. With his moderate size of 108 paired with an ideal teat placement of 104 front and rear and an outstanding total udder score of 136, nothing stands in the way of renewed use. 💯
𝐑𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐏 remains in the TOP-10 of daughter tested LPI bulls and 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟏 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐬. 🥇
The first daughters of 𝐒𝐤𝐲𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐝 are currently calving and we are also receiving promising feedback here. He can still 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐦 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝟏𝟒𝟕 𝐑𝐙𝐆 points from December.
Our genomically already strongly used bulls such as 𝐊𝐚𝐚𝐬 𝐑𝐞𝐝 𝐏 (𝐑𝐙𝐆 𝟏𝟓𝟑), 𝐀𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐨 (𝟏𝟓𝟐), 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐝 (𝟏𝟓𝟏), 𝐌𝐨𝐨𝐣𝐨 (𝟏𝟒𝟗), 𝐈𝐨𝐰𝐚 (𝟏𝟒𝟖), 𝐏𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐨 𝐏𝐏 (𝟏𝟒𝟏) 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐨 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞𝐬. 😊👌
Our red bull 𝐒𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐨 𝐑𝐞𝐝 proved to be the winner of the single step change and was able to increase his breeding value again and now has 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠 𝟏𝟒𝟔 𝐑𝐙𝐆 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬. 🔝
